Who is behind Castro Valley Cityhood???

It’s been two weeks since the “town hall” that I walked out of (not stormed out) and we still don’t know who is behind the Castro Valley Cityhood.  What has been learned is that the domain name for the glossy website is registered to a hidden person.  So the secrecy grows! The hard data of who is behind cityhood remains a mystery. At the town hall, when the basic question of “who” was refused to be answered on the grounds of “personalities”, staying would have had me condoning the secrecy and granting it acceptance.  I learned during my time on the EBMUD that they best way to give power to those who would hide who they are or what they are up to, is to stay in the room and acquiesce to the chicanery.

Twice, when I was in office I walked out on matters because staying would be the same as accepting the chicanery for what was being pushed.  Walking out is a valid form of protest. I do not choose to hide out – why is the cityhood cabal hiding out? The citizens of Castro Valley have an opportunity to stop this nonsense  by sending an email with the subject matter “No to Castro Valley Cityhood” to the LAFCO Executive Director:   Rachel.Jones@acgov.org
